Jo, founder, says: We designed these leggings with the 4-inch Movmentum band for tummy control and a comfortable “not too tight” feeling. They feature a higher rise for greater comfort at the waist AND you won't have those “bum revealing” moments!   Our Movmentum band now sits ABOVE your hips for ease in squatting and yoga. Triangular crotch stitching going all the way to the knee, which strengthens the inner seams and eliminates the dreaded “front wedgie!”   Deep pocket is large enough for keys and phone.
